Listen Later

Andrew Hannon (aka: Ando) is a trainer living in Scottsdale, Arizona that has a niche working with golfers. He took a big chance and moved from the midwest where he worked for country clubs out to Arizona where he took a chance and applied for a job with Premier Fitness Systems, which is one of the tops golf fitness in the United States.

Andrew talks about his training style and how he loves to be creative and see’s his passion as an art that allows him to integrate his love of sports with exercise creation. This is obvious if you check out his instagram. There are so many great ideas. He has learned many different systems but has his own unique way of bringing context to what is really important based on what people need.

He talks about how he grew up and how he knew he needed to push himself to do more. He also talks about how he is a bit more introverted and how social media is a great outlet that allows him to post about exercises and drills as a way to communicate to others. He’s got a sarcastic and funny side that he subtly let’s out online and they make us laugh every time!

We touched on how he will highlight his female golfers and why he appreciates them and their attention to detail. He also touches on the emotional side of things and being able to allow the session to just flow so that the client is truly enjoying the hour in their day. 

He discusses his affiliation with Adidas and what a great experience that was. 

He also opens up about his new life as a dad and how important it is he plays an integral role, and how one of his clients now helps care for his daughter. In the future he is looking forward to growing by putting himself out there both professionally and personally and finding a balance between Dad and work. 

If you want to hear a genuine down to earth trainer that has built a successful career and put in the hard work, then you don’t want to miss this episode.
